Tavern and inn signs

These are just images, not yet made in Quake 2 .wal format. The images have a transparent color, which in Quake 2 DoD will translate as being holes in signs, like in a cast iron stencil. Every medieval game may have signs as to know what type of building you are in. Simple as may look, they deliver a message.

If you are not using Jasc Paint Shop pro 7, go below, for a tutorial in creating a .pal file for making/transparent textures for Quake 2, in Gimp and converting them as .wal files with Wally :
q2 palette textures

My Quake 2 .pal file i converted using Jasc Paint Shop pro 7, so this is a way you can make your own textures from scratch or apply the .pal file to a image.

You can get Jasc Paint Shop pro 7 from here :
